QUOTE WORTHY
Bubba Wallace on racing at Dover International Speedway:
“I am ready to get back on the rollercoaster of Dover. This is our best track of the season; we always show up with a ton of speed. We were in contention for the win last time, so I know that we can produce the same results. I’m also glad to have Bleacher Report back on our Mustang.”
